The neuromorphic device is self-assembling, such that the atomic switches involved would portray the role of synapses. The computer chips are far from the match to the neuromorphic devices.

The devices are capable of sensing the alterations in the assemblies. There are supercomputers developed by the engineers that can simulate cortical micro-circuits. This kind of simulation involves around 80-90 thousand neurons connected to 300-400 synapses. Researchers still working on the neuromorphic device for spiking neural network such a model can add brain-like characteristics. The use of phase change memory in the synthetic synapse is still under study for analog computation.

Neuromorphic devices exhibit extreme computational ability with the least power consumption. This is possible because they can carry out multiple tasks at once. Their response is relying on environmental conditions, and only the part of the computer that is in use requires the power supply. These devices are flexible and can adapt to working anywhere. The neuromorphic devices can generate results even when the components fail. This ability is due to the redundant storage of information. If one part of the device fails, the other parts will always have the back up like the human brain.

Spiking Neural Network uses discreet analog signals. Computers have a time limit in which a task can be performed, as the information has to shuttle to and fro between the various components of the computer system, but with the neuromorphic chip, every neuron can carry out the task efficiently at the blink of an eye. Currently, neuromorphic hardware runs on graphic processing units, and this always has a scope for better options. To make the neuromorphic device available for the non-experts there is ample space for research for the development of the programming models and languages.

Some chips, run the self-driven vehicles, alongside directions to the driving it also responds to the voice commands and is anytime efficient in comparison to any GPU. There are chips in the market which are efficient than the microprocessors that once ruled the tech market. Neuromorphic chips driven supercomputers are now used for Human brain project. The optimized CPU can help in the execution of mathematical approximation. Computers driven by Neuromorphic devices target the study of unstructured data – this spreads out to the branches of study restructuring the genomic study prediction of the structure of the protein in pharmacology that is the much-needed breakthrough.
